About SharePoint Migration Demand for migration to Microsoft SharePoint 2010, 2013, 2016, and SharePoint Online continues to grow as the platform rapidly becomes the standard for organizations seeking a centralized knowledge repository and collaborative workspace. Minimize the time and effort required to transfer enterprise-wide content to SharePoint by utilizing DocAve's seamless, fully mapped transfer of content from SharePoint 2007, Share Point 2010, or SharePoint 2013 to SharePoint 2010, SharePoint 2013, SharePoint 2016, or SharePoint Online.

SharePoint migration projects are usually defined by business disruption and end-user confusion. With DocAve, this is no longer the case.

• Enable SharePoint administrators to easily automate the process of consolidating multiple content sources into SharePoint

• Maximize return on investment for content residing in legacy repositories

• Granularly migrate content down to individual SharePoint items in real-time, or through dynamic scheduling

• Retain all associated metadata and permissions throughout the migration process

Organizations can further minimize business disruption and time-to-value by leveraging AvePoint Partner Services (APPS) to perform detailed data analysis, content and application migrations, and post-migration verifications.

As with all AvePoint software, our SharePoint Migration tools leverage only fully supported Microsoft methodologies and APIs.

Complementary Products Many products and product suites on the DocAve 6 platform work in conjunction with one another. The following products are recommended for use with DocAve SharePoint Migration:

• DocAve Content Manager for SharePoint for restructuring or moving SharePoint content.

• DocAve Report Center for SharePoint to examine pain points in the SharePoint infrastructure and report on SharePoint user behavior and changes.

• DocAve Data Protection for setting backup and recovery points prior to adjusting SharePoint governance policies in this product.

• DocAve Replicator to perform live or event-driven, as well as scheduled or offline replication. Synchronization and management of all content, configurations, and securities is performed with full fidelity.

Before You Begin Refer to the sections for system and farm requirements that must be in place prior to installing and using DocAve SharePoint Migration.

AvePoint’s Testing Policy and Environment Support

Supported Software Environments AvePoint is committed to testing against all major versions and service packs of SharePoint as well as the latest versions of Windows Server and SQL Server, as Microsoft announces support and compatibility.

*Note: AvePoint does not recommend or support installing DocAve on client operating systems.

Supported Hardware AvePoint is committed to maintaining a hardware agnostic platform to ensure that DocAve operates on common Windows file sharing and virtualization platforms. To ensure that DocAve is hardware agnostic, AvePoint tests hardware that is intended to support SharePoint and DocAve infrastructure, storage targets, and hardware-based backup and recovery solutions, as supported by AvePoint’s partnerships. AvePoint directly integrates with the following platforms: any Net Share, FTP, Amazon S3, AT&T Synaptic, Box, Caringo Storage, Cleversafe, DELL DX Storage, Dropbox, EMC Atmos, EMC Centera, Google Drive, HDS Hitachi Content Platform, IBM Spectrum Scale Object, IBM Storwize Family, Microsoft Azure Storage, NetApp Data ONTAP, NFS, OneDrive, Rackspace Cloud Files, and TSM.

All other hardware platforms that support UNC addressable storage devices are supported.

*Note: AvePoint has ended the test and development for Caringo Storage and DELL DX Storage in DocAve since DocAve 6 SP7 CU1, as the providers of these two platforms have stopped the platform maintenance.

*Note: Due to changes in the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager API, DocAve 6 Service Pack 6 and later versions require that TSM Client version 7.1.2 is installed on the Control Service and Media Service servers.

*Note: Most of the hardware partnerships referenced in this guide are intended to make use of advanced functionality (such as snapshot mirroring, BLOB snapshots, indexing, long-term storage, WORM storage, etc.), and are not indications that any changes to the product are required for basic support. In most cases, hardware can be supported with no change to the product.

Supported Backup and Recovery DocAve supports BLOB backup storage according to the list of hardware platforms above. BLOB snapshot function, however, is currently only supported on OEM versions and NetApp hardware.

DocAve supports SQL content and Application database backups via the SharePoint Volume Shadow Copy Service (VSS) on all Windows and SQL server platforms listed above. DocAve also supports

10


snapshot-based SharePoint VSS on all hardware listed above where the hardware partner has certified support with Microsoft.

DocAve supports application and configuration server backups for all the supported software environments listed above. DocAve 6 SP5 or later supports VM backup via Hyper-V/VMWare for the following operating systems: Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2012 R2, and Microsoft Hyper–V Server 2012 R2.

Configurations In order to use DocAve SharePoint Migration, the DocAve 6 platform must be installed and configured properly on your farm. DocAve SharePoint Migration will not function without DocAve 6 present on the farm.

To review a list of migration source versions and systems supported by DocAve Migrator, refer to Appendix C – Migration Source Environment in the DocAve 6 Installation Guide.

Agents DocAve Agents are responsible for running DocAve jobs and interacting with the SharePoint object model. DocAve Agents enable DocAve Manager to communicate with the respective servers, allowing for DocAve Migrator commands to function properly.

*Note: The use of system resources on a server increases when the installed agent is performing actions. This may affect server performance. However, if the agent installed on a server is not being used, the use of system resources is very low and, therefore, the effect on server performance is negligible.

For instructions on installing the DocAve Platform, DocAve Manager, and DocAve Agents, see the DocAve 6 Installation Guide.

Required Permissions To use and install SharePoint Migration properly, ensure that the Agent accounts in your source and destination SharePoint environments have the following permissions.

Migration Speed Considerations Speed is a very important factor when migrating content. To set expectations with stakeholders for how long your migration plans will take, the following key factors should be taken into consideration prior to running your migration plans.

• Network bandwidth between the two SharePoint environments

• SQL I/O and memory

• Memory on Web front-end servers

• Memory on the server hosting the DocAve Media service

• Number of CPUs on Web front-end servers

• Source environment deployment

o Number of objects in source

Divide database and folder structures into small data sets before running the migration. Consider a granular migration approach.

o Size of objects in source

A single 1 GB file will migrate far quicker than a million files that have a sum of 1 GB.

o Complexity of folders, and sites

Prioritize content to be migrated into SharePoint, and utilize tools to establish co-existence throughout the course of the migration project to slowly roll-out SharePoint to users as their content becomes available.

o Whether DocAve has to create site collections during migration

Use folders to break up large document libraries or data subsets to manage library size, consider utilizing filtering to migrate a sub-set of the data at a time.

o Whether securities are included in the plan (including mappings)

23


Permissions can be configured to be migrated in the migration plans.

o Whether metadata is included in the plan

Health Analyzer AvePoint recommends using Health Analyzer to check the prerequisites for properly using DocAve SharePoint Migration.

*Note: Health Analyzer is only available for users in the DocAve Administrators group.

For more information about Health Analyzer, refer to DocAve 6 Installation Guide.


24


Getting Started Refer to the sections below for important information on getting started with SharePoint Migration.

Group and Permission Considerations Users of the Administrators group, System Group, and Web Application Tenant Group can run both SharePoint Online Migration and SharePoint Offline Migration jobs if the following conditions are met:

• The group permissions contain the SharePoint Migration module.

• The System Group users have enough permission to the selected nodes in the migration jobs.

• For Web Application Tenant Group users, the selected nodes in the migration jobs are included in the group scope.

• The Active Directory users in the Web Application Tenant Group have the permission configured in the group to the selected nodes in the migration jobs.

Users of the Site Collection Tenant Group can run SharePoint Online Migration jobs if the following conditions are met:

*Note: You can download a sample DLL file, provided for reference on how to customize the code, by clicking Download the Sample Code. For more information on configuring the DLL file, see the content in the downloaded file.

There are three interfaces provided to be used in the DLL files: IAveCustomFieldMapping, IAveCustomContentTypeMapping, and IAveCustomFilter.

*Note: The three interfaces above all use the AgentCommonWrapperCustomUtility.dll file in the …\Program Files\AvePoint\DocAve6\Agent\bin directory.

IAveCustomFieldMapping – By using this interface, you can customize column mappings in the DLL file. DocAve provides eleven column mapping samples:

• Column Mapping 1 – Maps source columns to custom columns in the destination and maps the corresponding source column values to custom column values in the destination.

• Column Mapping 2 – Maps source columns to custom columns in the destination. Keeps some source column values and maps some source column values to null in the destination.

• Column Mapping 3 – Maps source columns to custom columns in the destination. Maps some source column value to the specified column value and maps some source column value to null in the destination.

• Column Mapping 4 – Specifies source columns to be included in the filter plans and not be migrated.

• Column Mapping 5 – Creates new custom columns with specified column types and corresponding column values in the destination.

• Column Mapping 6 – Creates new custom columns in the destination. Specifies the columns using column types and column values. Specifies default column values and column value mappings.

• Column Mapping 7 – Collapses the source folder structure and creates custom column in the destination to represent the folder structure. When mapping the source object in the folder, the object will have the corresponding folder names as the specified column values.

• Column Mapping 8 – Creates new custom Managed Metadata columns in the destination. Specifies default column values and column value mappings.

• Column Mapping 9 – Maps source columns to Managed Metadata columns in the destination and maps the corresponding source column values to custom column values in the destination.

• Column Mapping 10 – Creates new custom Lookup columns in the destination. Specifies default column values and column value mappings.

31


• Column Mapping 11 – Maps source columns to Lookup column in the destination and maps the corresponding source column values to custom column values in the destination.

Three special cases are provided to show how to perform the column mappings that cannot be configured in the DocAve interface:

• Case 1 – Maps the source column to the custom column in the destination and maps the corresponding column values according to number, prefix, suffix, regular expression and so on.

• Case 2 – Maps the source column to the custom column in the destination and maps the corresponding column values according to the source item name.

• Case 3 – Maps multiple source columns to one custom column in the destination and maps the source column values to the destination column value.

IAveCustomContentTypeMapping – By using this interface, you can customize content type mappings in the DLL file. DocAve provides one content type mapping sample:

• Content Type Mapping – Maps source content types to custom content types in the destination.

IAveCustomFilter – By using this interface, you can customize filter policies in the DLL file. DocAve provides eleven filter policy samples as follows:

• Filter Policy 1 – Specifies the column by the display name in the filter policy. By using this filter policy, the object with specified column value will be included in the filter plans.

• Filter Policy 2 – Specifies the content type column by the display name in the filter policy. By using this filter policy, the object with the specified content type column value will be included in the filter plans.

• Filter Policy 3 – Specifies the column by the column type and display name in the filter policy. By using this filter policy, the object with the specified column value will be included in the filter plans.

• Filter Policy 4 – Specifies the column by the display name in the filter policy. By using this filter policy, the object whose column value starts with the specified value will be included in the filter plans.

• Filter Policy 5 – Specifies the column by both the display name and internal name in the filter policy. Only the column internal name condition works.

• Filter Policy 6 – Specifies the column by the display name in the filter policy. By using this filter policy, the item that has the specified column will be included in the filter plans.

• Filter Policy 7 – Specifies several rules in the filter policy and use the logical operator “or”.

• Filter Policy 8 – Specifies several rules in the filter policy and use the logical operator “and”.

32


• Filter Policy 9 – Specifies the column by the display name in the filter policy. The item with the specified column value will be included in the filter plans.

• Filter Policy 10 – Specifies the content type in the filter policy. The object that uses the specified content type will be included in the filter plans.

• Filter Policy 11 – Specifies the column by the display name in the filter policy. The object with the specified column value will be filtered.

Advanced Options Configure the Advanced Options:

Preserve the Null Column Values – Choose whether or not to preserve the null value of item columns in the source. Some values of the newly created columns may be null for previous items, and this option allows you to choose whether to replace the null value with the default value in the destination.

• If you select the Yes radio button, the null values of item columns (such as newly created columns) are preserved. By default, the Yes radio button is selected.

• If you select the No radio button, the null values of item columns (such as newly created columns) are replaced with default values in the destination node.

Change Site Look and Feel – Choose whether to change or preserve the look and feel of the SharePoint sites in the destination. Normally, the manually input site or site collection is used as the destination node.

• Change existing SharePoint sites to use the new user experience ‒ Uses the destination look and feel for the migrated site collections or sites. Administrators of the destination site can control the user experience for end users.

*Note: If you choose this option, the property of the source site must be migrated to the destination in SharePoint 2007 to 2010 Migration jobs. Make sure that in the source tree the Property checkbox behind the source site is selected.

Preserve customized pages, but update template and application pages to use the new UI ‒ Preserves the content of the customized pages and uses the destination template and application pages after the migration.

Reset all customized pages to their original templates ‒ Deletes all customized pages and deletes modifications from customized pages. This cannot be undone.

• Preserve the look and feel of existing SharePoint sites, and allow end users to update their sites' user experience ‒ Preserves the source look and feel for the migrated site collections and sites after the migration. The end user can still update the look and feel of the SharePoint sites in the source to that of the SharePoint sites in the destination, but it is irreversible.

*Note: This function is only available for SharePoint 2007 to 2010 Migration and SharePoint 2010 to 2013 Migration. Due to a SharePoint limitation, the Master Page, Page Layout, and Site Templates web properties are not available when migrating from SharePoint 2007 to 2013.

Folder Structure Management – Choose whether or not to collapse the folder structure of the source SharePoint content. If you select the Collapse folder structure checkbox, all levels of the folder structure of the source content will be collapsed. All files within the folders will be migrated to the library and merged to the same path in the destination. With this option selected, you can further choose to add a column to keep the source path or parent folder name

41


of the files in the destination. Select the Add column to keep source path checkbox and select one of the following options:

• Source path – Select the Source path option to record the source path of each document to be the column value. DocAve Source Path is provided as the default name of the column and you can also customize the name by entering a column name in the text box.

• Parent folder – Select the Parent folder option to record the parent folder of each document to be the column value. Parent Folder Name is provided as the default name of the column, and you can also customize the name by entering a column name in the text box.

Character Length Settings – This is used to set character length limitations for SharePoint URL, folder name, and file name.

• Maximum length of the SharePoint URL – The default value is 255, but you can define the maximum length between 1 and 400 characters. The length of a SharePoint Online URL must be between 1 and 400 characters. The length of SharePoint on-premises URL must be between 1 and 260 characters. The length of the SharePoint URL is calculated from the first character of the managed path, that is /. When the folder or file’s URL exceeds the limitation, the migration results are as follows:

If the folder URL exceeds the limitation, the folder name will be pruned according to the value which is set in Maximum length of the folder name first. If the folder URL still exceeds the limitation, the folder and its content will be migrated to the root folder of the destination list. If there is a file whose URL exceeds the limitation within a folder, the file name will be pruned according to the value which is set in Maximum length of the file name first. If the file URL still exceeds the limitation, it will be migrated to the root folder of the destination list.

If the file URL exceeds the limitation, the file name will be pruned according to the value which is set in Maximum length of the file name first. If the file URL still exceeds the limitation, it will be migrated to the root folder of the destination list.

• Maximum length of the folder name – The default value is 128, but you can define the value between 1 and 128. If the folder name exceeds the limitation, the extra characters will be pruned from the end. For example, a folder is named abcdef in the source and the value that you set here is 5. The folder will be named abcde after the migration.

• Maximum length of the file name – The default value is 128, but you can define the value between 1 and 128. If the file name, including the file extension, exceeds the limitation, the extra characters will be pruned from the end. For example, a file is named abcdef.txt in the source and the value that you set here is 5. The file will be named a_0.txt after the migration. _0 is used to mark that the file name is pruned.

Dynamic Rule – Allows you to configure your own mappings and filter policies using C #. The default dynamic rule is set to be none. You may select a previously created dynamic rule from the drop-down menu, or click New Dynamic Rule from the drop-down menu to create a new

42


one. For information on creating a new dynamic rule, see the Configuring Dynamic Rules section of this guide.

When finished configuring all options, click Save to save the profile. Alternatively, click Save As and enter a profile name to save it as another profile.

Performing a SharePoint Online Migration An online SharePoint Migration job migrates content, securities, and configurations from the source to the destination SharePoint environment.

The length of SharePoint on-premises URL must be between 1 and 260 characters. The length of the SharePoint URL is calculated from the first character of the managed path, that is /. When the folder or file’s URL exceeds the limitation, the migration results are as follows:

If the folder URL exceeds the limitation, the folder name will be pruned according to the value which is set in Maximum length of the folder name first. If the folder URL still exceeds the limitation, the folder and its content will be migrated to the root folder of the destination list. If there is a file whose URL exceeds the limitation within a folder, the file name will be pruned according to the value which is set in Maximum length of the file name first. If the file URL still exceeds the limitation, it will be migrated to the root folder of the destination list.

If the file URL exceeds the limitation, the file name will be pruned according to the value which is set in Maximum length of the file name

58


first. If the file URL still exceeds the limitation, it will be migrated to the root folder of the destination list.

Maximum length of the folder name – The default value is 128 and you can define the value between 1 and 128 characters. If the folder name exceeds the limitation, the extra characters will be pruned from the end. For example, a folder migrated from SharePoint 2007 is named abcdef in the source and the value that you set here is 5. The folder will be named abcde after the migration.

Maximum length of the file name – The default value is 128 and you can define the value between 1 and 128 characters. If the file name, including the file extension, exceeds the limitation, the extra characters will be pruned from the end. For example, a file is named abcdef.txt in the source and the value that you set here is 5. The file will be named a_0.txt after the migration. _0 is used to mark that the file name is pruned.

When finished configuring all options, click Save to save the profile. Alternatively, click Save As and enter a profile name to save it as another profile.

Importing Data Exported from Other Managers SharePoint Migrator allows you to import data that is exported from other DocAve 6 Managers.

• If you have run an export job using the current Manager, a folder named data_granular will have been generated in the specified location of the corresponding storage policy. You must move the desired exported data of other DocAve 6 Managers to the data_granular folder in farm level.

• If you run an export job using the current Manager for the first time, create a new storage policy to store the desired exported data of other DocAve 6 Managers.

In the specified location of the storage policy, create a folder named data_granular and then move the desired exported data of other DocAve 6 Managers to the newly created folder in farm level.

Move the data_granular folder of other DocAve 6 Managers’ export jobs to the specified location of the storage policy.

After importing the exported data of other DocAve 6 Managers to the current Manager, you can configure and run an import job. For detailed information, see the DocAve 6 Control Panel Reference Guide.

Editing a Metadata File You can add, edit, or delete the metadata file, or perform these actions on metadata files in batch. Follow the steps below to edit the metadata file.

In the UNC path where the metadata file is stored, each list generates an Excel file. Open the Excel file named by a list path. The list’s columns, items, and their corresponding column values are displayed in the Excel file.

You can add, edit, and delete the metadata file in the Excel file.



59


• Add the metadata: add a column, specify its column type and set a value for the item in the Excel file.

For example, add a new column next to the existing column on the first row, enter Comments: = Multiple lines of text and set the value of an item as It needs to be updated. Here Comments is the column name; Multiple lines of text is the column type; It needs to be updated is the corresponding value for the item. After the import job, the column Comments and the value will be added as new metadata for the item.

• Edit the metadata. Edit the column type of an item and modify the corresponding value in the Excel file.

For example, in the Excel file, there is a column named Name: = Single line of text. The column value of an item is Document A. You can modify the column value by modifying the value Document A to Document B. After the import job, the item name will be displayed as Document B in the destination.

*Note: If you edit the column that is a Lookup column and gets information from Shared Documents library, configure settings for the column based on the following situations:

In the XML file used for the import job, if the value of the isLoadBuildInListTitleMapping=" " parameter is True, change Shared Documents to Documents.

In the XML file used for the import job, if the value of the isLoadBuildInListTitleMapping=" " parameter is False, keep the Shared Documents value.

• Delete the metadata. Delete the column name, column type of an item and the corresponding value in the Excel file.

For example, in the Excel file, the column name, column type of an item is Title: = Single line of text and the corresponding value is Custom List. If you do not wish this column Title and the value for this item to be associated with the item in the destination after being imported, delete the column name, column type and the corresponding value from the cells.

• Rename the metadata. Rename the column name in the Excel file.

For example, in the Excel file, there is a column named Title: = Single line of text. The column name is displayed as Title in the source. You can rename the column name by modifying the column Title: = Single line of text to Name: = Single line of text. After the import job, the column name will be displayed as Name in the destination.

*Note: This function does not support renaming columns of Choice type.

The following tools are available to upload the exported data to Microsoft Azure:

• AvePoint recommends you use the Azure Data Upload tool, which will automatically create BLOB containers in Microsoft Azure, and upload the exported data to BLOB containers as BLOBs. The tool will generate a unique MD5 hash value for each BLOB.

For more information about the Azure Data Upload tool, refer to AvePoint High Speed Migration Supplementary Tools User Guide.

• Use the Microsoft Azure Import/Export tool to copy the exported data to the hard drives that you are going to ship to a Microsoft Azure data center and send the hard drives to Microsoft. After the data in hard drives has been uploaded to Microsoft Azure by Microsoft, you have to use the MD5 Value Generator tool to update MD5 hash values for the uploaded data in Microsoft Azure.

For more information about the Microsoft Azure Import/Export tool, refer to Azure Import/Export Tool Reference.

Importing Data The following sections describe how to import the exported data to the destination SharePoint Online node.

*Note: Before importing data, make sure the source data exported to the export location has been uploaded to the Microsoft Azure.

Selecting the Source and Destination Nodes SharePoint High Speed Offline Migration supports importing data from Microsoft Azure location to SharePoint Online.

1. From the Home tab, in the Plan Management group, click Import.

2. In the Source pane, follow the steps below to select the source node whose data you wish to import.

On the Browse tab, click the Microsoft Azure location where the data you want to import.

Target the specified High Speed Migration Export job that exports the data you want to import by selecting the Job ID under the corresponding plan.

Switch to the Details tab, the data tree that is selected in the plan will be displayed.

3. In the Destination pane, click My Registered Sites to expand the data tree.

Find the node where you want to import the exported data. If working with a large environment, enter the keyword of the node into the Input Keyword text box to search for the desired node. You can only search out the nodes whose name is displayed in the currently expanded tree. The nodes which are not displayed in the expanded tree cannot be searched. When entering the keyword, the search result will be displayed with a little time.

Select the destination node by selecting the corresponding radio button. You can also create a site, list or folder by entering the specified name and click Create Container. SharePoint High Speed Migration allows you to create one or more SharePoint Online site collections in the destination using the Create Container function when running a migration job. For details on creating containers, refer to Creating Containers.

4. In the Action pane, choose Attach to migrate the source node as a child underneath the chosen destination node. Alternatively, choose Merge to add the content, security, and configuration of the source to the selected destination node. The table below shows when Attach and/or Merge are available to choose.

M: Merge A: Attach X: Unsupported.

5. Click Save As New Plan to save the settings as a new plan, and then the Save As New Plan interface appears. For more information, refer to Configuring the Save As New Plan Interface.

Configuring the Save As New Plan Interface On the Save As New Plan interface, configure the following settings:

1. Plan Name – Enter a Plan Name for the plan that you are about to create. Then enter an optional Description for future references.

2. Profile Selection – Select a previously configured profile from the drop-down list to apply the migration settings to the migration job. SharePoint Migration provides you a default profile named Default Profile (default). You can also click New Profile to create a new one.













86


Configuring the Add Schedule Interface Click Add Schedule and the Add Schedule interface appears. Configure the following settings.


You can run an incremental migration job for a SharePoint High Speed Migration to migrate the added and/or modified content based on time. Navigate to the SharePoint Online Migration interface, and select the same source and destination nodes with the SharePoint High Speed Migration. Configure the Run Now interface to run an incremental migration job. For more details, refer to Configuring the Run Now Interface.

2. Conflict Resolution – Conflict Resolution determines the action that DocAve takes when an object name in the source node is identical to an object name in the destination node.

High Speed Offline Migration only supports configuring the Container Level conflict resolution, the available conflict resolutions are Merge and Skip. The Content Level conflict resolution is overwrite. For more detailed information of Conflict Resolution, refer to Appendix C: Conflict Resolution.

3. Click OK to run the import migration job, or click Cancel to go back to the Save As New Plan interface without saving any change.

88


Managing Profiles Refer to the information below to manage profiles.

Uploading a Previously Configured Profile In the Profile Settings interface, click Upload Profile in the Upload/Download group.

In the pop-up window, select a previously created profile and click Open to upload it. If a profile with the same name exists in DocAve, you have two options:

• Upload as a new profile named "Profile Name_1" – Upload the profile and name the uploaded profile by adding a suffix, for example, profile_1.

• Overwrite current profile – Replace the existing profile. The Default Profile cannot be overwritten.

Downloading an Existing Profile In the Profile Settings interface, select the profile that you want to download in the

Online/Export/Import Profile drop-down menu.

Click Download Profile in the Upload/Download group.

In the pop-up window, select the location where you want to store this profile and click Save to save the profile to the location you specified.

You can edit parameter values to enable extra features in the SharePoint Migration profile. For more information, refer to Appendix B: Advanced Settings for SharePoint Migration.

89


Managing Plans You can use Plan Manager to manage the SharePoint Migration plans. After launching SharePoint Migration, click Plan Manager next to the Home tab. In the Plan Manager interface, any plans that you have previously created are displayed in the main display pane.

In this interface, you can change the number of plans displayed per page. To change the number of plans displayed per page, select the desired number from the Show rows drop-down menu in the lower right-hand corner. To sort the plans, click the column heading such as Plan Name, and Plan ID.

Plan Manager Actions Perform the following actions in the Plan Manager interface:

• Select a plan and click View Details. The source node and the destination node are displayed on the data tree. You can also click Settings on the ribbon to view the migration settings of this plan. When you want to change the nodes you selected or want to modify the migration settings, click Edit on the ribbon.

• Select a plan and click Edit on the ribbon to change the configurations for the selected plan. You can change the nodes you selected and modify the migration settings. Additionally, you can click Profile Settings or Create Container to performing the corresponding actions.

• Select the plans that you want to delete and click Delete on the ribbon. A confirmation window appears. Click OK to delete the selected plans or click Cancel to return to the Plan Manager interface without deleting the selected plans.

• Click Test Run to perform a test run job, which simulates the real migration job. By viewing the job report of the test run, you can find whether the source contents can be migrated to the destination successfully and then adjust the plans or optimize the settings.

*Note: The Test Run function is not available for SharePoint High Speed Migration plans.

*Note: Test Run results may differ from the results of an actual migration. You can investigate Test Runs that display Finished with Exceptions results by reviewing the log file. If no obvious content, metadata, or permission errors are found, it is likely that the actual migration will complete successfully.

• Click Run Now to perform the migration job.

Plan Groups Plan Group collects plans to groups according to your setup. The plans will run simultaneously or in sequence instead of having to run the plans manually. For more information, refer to the Plan Group section in the DocAve 6 Control Panel Reference Guide.


90


When adding a migration plan to a plan group, the migration jobs of this plan will be run in the following schedules:

• If the Disable the schedule for each plan and run plans according to the plan group’s schedule checkbox is selected in the plan group, the plan’s schedule will be disabled. The migration jobs of the plan will be run according to the plan group’s schedule. If no schedule is configured for the plan group, the migration jobs of the plan will not be run until the plan (or plan group) is run automatically.

• If the Disable the schedule for each plan and run plans according to the plan group’s schedule checkbox is not selected in the plan group, refer to the following situations:

o If both the plan and the plan group have a schedule configured, the migration jobs of the plan will be run according to both the schedules. Refer to Schedule Logic for details.

o If only one schedule is configured (for the plan or plan group), the migration jobs will be run according to the configured schedule.

o If no schedule is configured for the plan or the plan group, the migration jobs of the plan will not run until the plan (or plan group) automatically runs.

When adding a migration plan to multiple plan groups, the migration jobs of this plan will be run in the following schedules:

• If the Disable the schedule for each plan and run plans according to the plan group’s schedule checkbox is selected (in one or all of the plan groups), the plan’s schedule will be disabled. The migration jobs of the plan will be run according to the plan groups’ schedules. Refer to Schedule Logic for details.

• If the Disable the schedule for each plan and run plans according to the plan group’s schedule checkbox is not selected in all of the plan groups, the migration jobs of the plan will be run according to all of the configured schedules of the plans and plan groups. Refer to Schedule Logic for details.

91


Schedule Logic Below explains how the software will function when more than one schedule is set to run:

• If the jobs in a plan are scheduled to run at the same time, only the migration job that was created first will run.

• If a migration job is running and one or more jobs in that plan are scheduled to start while the current job is running, those jobs will be skipped.

Supported Partially Supported Unsupported Comment 11

*Note: When migrating Nintex workflows, SharePoint Migration also supports the migration for workflow constants and variables.

Comment 1: If the linked images of these two Web parts are not in the selected source node and the images are linked by their full URLs, these URLs are not supported for updates in the SharePoint 2007 to 2013 Migration jobs.

Comment 2: The Audit log reports in the source and those migrated to the destination are different because a related Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 API does not exist.

104


Comment 3: If the IsSource source variation labels’ column values are Yes, these labels cannot be opened or edited in the destination after the migration.

Comment 4: SharePoint 2007 to 2010 Migration does not support the migration of the Locale property in Regional Settings to protect customer environments. SharePoint 2007 to 2016 Migration does not support the migration of the Barcodes property.

Comment 5: The source indexed columns can only be partially migrated to the destination. The following columns cannot be migrated: Content Type, Created, Created_x0020_Date, Modified, and Workflow Instance ID.

Comment 6: Views of the Discussion Board list cannot be migrated in SharePoint 2007 to 2013/2016 Migration jobs.

Comment 7: The default page of site collections that uses the Report Center template will be displayed incorrectly after migration due to an API limitation.

Comment 8: The images in the default page of site collections that use the Publishing Portal template cannot be displayed after migration due to an API limitation.

Comment 9: The images in the default page of site collections that use the Publishing template cannot be displayed after migration due to an API limitation.

Comment 10: The built-in News Archive page of the sites that use the News Site template cannot be opened after migration due to an API limitation.

Comment 11: Some actions will be lost after the SharePoint 2007 to 2010/2013 migration, for example, the Check out item action. Some actions are not supported in SharePoint 2007 to 2010/2013 migration, for example, the Create CRM Record action. SharePoint 2007 to 2010/2013 Migration does not support the user mapping that maps the related user of the workflow actions.

*Note: If you select the SharePoint 2010 site collection that is the Content Type hub as the source, and select the SharePoint 2013 site collection that is the Content Type hub as the destination to run the migration job, the source published content types remain the published status but are not subscribed successfully.
